The expression on her face is exactly the way I wanted to capture it. 
Sarah was about a week away from flying off to London to live for an
indeterminate amount of time.  She's happy to be going, sad to be
moving so far away from her family, contemplative about her future.

I have one I took about 2 minutes earlier that I have done just that
to.  A slightly different expression - looking toward the viewer with a
small smile as if someone had just walked in and broken the mode she
had in the picture I used for the PAW.

She was really good to work with.  She could take a pose and just hold
it.  If I asked her to move her head or her hands or eyes she moved
them, but the rest of her stayed still.

Thanks for your thoughts.
